[0069] In an optional embodiment, in order to improve the insulation between the cathode and the anode 14, and avoid the generation of current pulses due to too small distance between the two, the cathode and the anode 14 are isolated by the corresponding position of the pixel definition layer.

[0072] The cathode laminated on the first pixel definition layer 151 and the second pixel definition layer 152 is arranged to be isolated from the anode 14 by the third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154, respectively.

[0074] As shown in the figure, Figure 1 The third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154 can be arranged in a rectangular shape, and the anode 14 and the cathode at the corresponding position can be in contact with the opposite two end faces or adjacent two end faces of the third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154, respectively, and the cathode and the anode 14 are arranged to be isolated by the third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154. For example, the first cathode 161 can be in contact with the first end face of the third pixel definition layer 153, the anode 14 can be in contact with the second end face of the third pixel definition layer 153, and the first end face and the second end face are arranged opposite to each other.
[0075] The groove can be a U-shaped groove, a square groove, a trapezoidal groove, etc., and the specific structure is arranged according to the light-emitting area of the light-emitting component. In an optional embodiment, in order to increase the light-emitting area, the groove is a reverse trapezoidal groove, wherein the light-emitting layer 17 includes a fifth side in contact with the anode 14 and a sixth side opposite to the fifth side, and along the first direction, the size of the fifth side is smaller than the size of the sixth side, and the first direction is the extension direction of the first substrate 11.

[0077] In the embodiment, the first pixel definition layer 151 and the second pixel definition layer 152 form a trapezoidal structure, the size of the upper end surface of the first pixel definition layer 151 is smaller than the size of the lower end surface, the size of the upper end surface of the second pixel definition layer 152 is smaller than the size of the lower end surface, and the side of the first pixel definition layer 151 and the second pixel definition layer 152 close to the light-emitting layer 17 forms a slope, thereby forming an inverted trapezoidal groove, along the extension direction of the first substrate 11, the size of the end surface of the light-emitting layer 17 grounded to the anode 14 is smaller than the size of the other end surface facing away from the anode 14, and by increasing the area of the light-emitting layer 17 towards the side of the color film substrate, the light-emitting area of the light-emitting component can be increased.
[0078] Wherein, the anode 14 and the cathode are metal materials, for example, high-conductivity and high-reflectivity metals such as Ag, when the anode 14 is made of a metal material, it has a reflection effect, that is, it will be reflected by ambient light, which affects the light-emitting efficiency, therefore, the color film substrate is fixedly installed on the array substrate by the conductive frame glue 30, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the color film layer includes black matrices 23 and color resistances 22 arranged at intervals, the color resistances 22 can be color resistances 22 of corresponding colors, such as red color resistances, blue color resistances, and green color resistances, the color resistances 22 are arranged corresponding to the light-emitting layer 17, along the extension direction of the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 21, the size of the color resistance 22 is equal to the size of one end of the light-emitting layer 17 towards the color resistance 22, that is, the color resistance 22 coincides with the light-emitting layer 17, the light of the light-emitting layer 17 can be emitted to the outside through the color resistance 22, at the same time, the color resistance 22 can also absorb the reflected ambient light, reduce the reflection of ambient light, and improve the light-emitting efficiency.
[0079] The black matrix 23 is arranged opposite to the pixel definition layer, along the extension direction of the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 21, the size of the black matrix 23 is the same as that of the corresponding pixel definition layer, for example, one of the black matrices 23 coincides with the side of the first pixel definition layer 151 towards the color film substrate, and the other black matrix 23 coincides with the side of the second pixel definition layer 152 towards the color film substrate, the black matrix 23 is used to realize light shielding and reduce the incidence of ambient light to the light-emitting layer 17.
[0080] Meanwhile, in order to reduce the sheet resistance of the cathode and avoid the light emitting component generating extra current voltage drop, an auxiliary cathode is further formed on the black matrix 23, the auxiliary cathode is arranged towards the array substrate, for example, a first auxiliary cathode 241 is formed on the black matrix 23 towards the first pixel defining layer 151, and a second auxiliary cathode 242 is formed on the black matrix 23 towards the second pixel defining layer 152, when the array substrate and the color filter substrate are fixedly installed by the conductive frame adhesive 30, the extension part on the auxiliary cathode abuts against the cathode, and the auxiliary cathode is further electrically connected with the conductive frame adhesive 30, when the auxiliary electrode 13 inputs the corresponding ground signal, the ground signal can reach the cathode through the conductive frame adhesive 30 and the auxiliary cathode and provide the ground signal, and form a driving signal with the data signal input by the anode 14 and excite the light emitting layer 17 to emit light.
[0081] Meanwhile, by stacking the auxiliary cathode, the thickness of the equivalent cathode of the auxiliary cathode and the cathode as a whole increases, the sheet resistance is inversely proportional to the thickness of the cathode, the greater the thickness, the smaller the sheet resistance, and the smaller the current voltage drop, therefore, by stacking the auxiliary cathode, the sheet resistance of the equivalent cathode can be reduced, and the current voltage drop of the pixel unit is further reduced, the overall brightness of the display panel is ensured to be consistent, the display uniformity of the display panel is realized, and the display effect is improved.
[0082] In addition, the auxiliary cathode is stacked on the black matrix 23, which does not affect the light emitting area of the light emitting layer 17, wherein, in order to reduce the reflection of the auxiliary cathode to the ambient light, the size of the corresponding auxiliary cathode is smaller than the size of the black matrix 23 along the extension direction of the second substrate 21.

[0097] In this embodiment, a first substrate 11 and a second substrate 21 are first provided, and a driving circuit layer and a light-emitting component are sequentially stacked on the first substrate 11. The first substrate 11, the driving circuit layer and the light-emitting component constitute an array substrate. The first substrate 11 can be divided into a display area 101 and a non-display area 102 surrounding the display area 101. The display area 101 is used to set up pixel units arranged in an array. The pixel unit includes at least a corresponding thin film transistor 12 and a light-emitting component. Multiple columns of data lines and multiple rows of scan lines can also be set on the first substrate 11. The pixel unit is connected to a data line and a scan line respectively. The scan line is used to input a row scan signal, and the data line is used to input a data signal. When the corresponding thin film transistor 12 receives the row scan signal, it is triggered to turn on and transmits the data signal to the light-emitting component to excite the light-emitting component to emit light.
[0098] The driving circuit layer includes thin-film transistors 12 stacked on the display area 101 and auxiliary electrodes 13 stacked on the non-display area 102. The auxiliary electrodes 13 are arranged in a ring to form an auxiliary electrode ring, and the auxiliary electrodes 13 are used to provide a ground signal.
[0099] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, the thin-film transistor 12 includes an active layer 122, source and drain electrodes 125, a gate insulating layer 123, and a gate electrode 124.

The light-shielding layer 121 is located between the first substrate 11 and the active layer 122. Along the extension direction of the first substrate 11, the size of the light-shielding layer 121 is greater than or equal to the size of the active layer 122, thereby achieving effective light shielding of the active layer 122.
[0101] The light-emitting component includes an anode 14, a pixel definition layer, a light-emitting layer 17, and a cathode. The anode 14 is stacked on the thin-film transistor 12 through an interlayer structure and connected through a conductive part 18, which may be a metallic material.
[0102] The pixel definition layer is used to divide the luminous and non-luminous regions, such as... Figure 1As shown, the pixel definition layer forms a groove structure through etching, laser engraving, etc., and is disposed on both sides of the anode 14 and in contact with the anode 14. For example, the pixel definition layer may include a first pixel definition layer 151 and a second pixel definition layer 152 disposed on both sides of the anode 14. The first pixel definition layer 151, the anode 14, and the second pixel definition layer 152 form a groove, which is used to accommodate the light-emitting layer 17. At the same time, a cathode is also stacked on the pixel definition layer. For example, a first cathode 161 is stacked on the first pixel definition layer 151, and a second cathode 162 is stacked on the second pixel definition layer 152. The cathode and the anode 14 are not in direct contact. Figure 1 As shown, the cathode and anode 14 can be isolated at corresponding positions in the pixel definition layer, or as... Figure 4 As shown, the cathode and anode 14 are directly spaced apart. When a driving voltage is input to the cathode and anode 14, the light-emitting layer 17 emits light.
[0103] In an optional embodiment, in order to improve the insulation between the cathode and anode 14 and avoid the generation of current pulses due to the small distance between them, the cathode and anode 14 are isolated by corresponding positions of the pixel definition layer.
[0104] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, the anode 14 includes a first side, a second side, a third side, and a fourth side. The first and second sides of the anode 14 are arranged opposite to each other, the third and fourth sides of the anode 14 are arranged opposite to each other, and the first side of the anode 14 is connected to the thin-film transistor 12.

[0106] The cathodes, which are stacked on the first pixel definition layer 151 and the second pixel definition layer 152, are isolated from the anode 14 through the third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154, respectively.
[0107] The pixel definition layers are formed by etching and laser etching to form a first pixel definition layer 151, a second pixel definition layer 152, a third pixel definition layer 153, and a fourth pixel definition layer 154. The first pixel definition layer 151 and the second pixel definition layer 152 are used to form cathodes respectively. The third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154 are respectively stacked on both ends of the anode 14. The third pixel definition layer 153 is used to insulate and isolate the anode 14 and the cathode stacked on the first pixel definition layer 151. The fourth pixel definition layer 154 is used to insulate and isolate the anode 14 and the cathode stacked on the second pixel definition layer 152.
[0108] As shown in Figure 1 The third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154 can be arranged in a rectangular shape, and the anode 14 and the cathode at the corresponding positions can be in contact with the opposite two end faces or adjacent two end faces of the third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154, respectively, and the cathode and the anode 14 are arranged in isolation through the third pixel definition layer 153 and the fourth pixel definition layer 154. For example, the first cathode 161 can be in contact with the first end face of the third pixel definition layer 153, and the anode 14 can be in contact with the second end face of the third pixel definition layer 153, and the first end face and the second end face are arranged opposite to each other.
[0109] The recess can be a U-shaped recess, a square recess, a trapezoidal recess, etc., and the specific structure can be arranged according to the light-emitting area of the light-emitting component. In an optional embodiment, in order to increase the light-emitting area, the recess is a reverse trapezoidal groove, wherein the light-emitting layer 17 includes a fifth side in contact with the anode 14 and a sixth side opposite to the fifth side, and along the first direction, the size of the fifth side is smaller than the size of the sixth side, and the first direction is the extension direction of the first substrate 11.
[0110] The first pixel definition layer 151, the third pixel definition layer 153, the anode 14, the fourth pixel definition layer 154, and the second pixel definition layer 152 form a reverse trapezoidal groove.
[0111] The first pixel definition layer 151 and the second pixel definition layer 152 form a trapezoidal structure, the size of the upper end face of the first pixel definition layer 151 is smaller than the size of the lower end face, the size of the upper end face of the second pixel definition layer 152 is smaller than the size of the lower end face, and the side of the first pixel definition layer 151 and the second pixel definition layer 152 close to the light-emitting layer 17 forms a slope, thereby forming a reverse trapezoidal groove, and along the extension direction of the first substrate 11, the size of the end face of the light-emitting layer 17 in contact with the anode 14 is smaller than the size of the other end face away from the anode 14. By increasing the area of the light-emitting layer 17 towards the side of the color filter substrate, the light-emitting area of the light-emitting component can be increased.
[0112] The anode 14 and the cathode are made of metal material, such as Ag and other high-conductivity and high-reflectivity metals. When the anode 14 is made of metal material, it has a reflection effect, i.e., it will be reflected by ambient light, which affects the light-emitting efficiency. Therefore, a color filter layer is prepared on the second substrate 21, which includes a black matrix 23 and a color resist 22 arranged in a spaced manner. The color resist 22 can be a color resist 22 of a corresponding color, such as a red color resist, a blue color resist, and a green color resist. The color resist 22 is arranged corresponding to the light-emitting layer 17, and along the extension direction of the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 21, the size of the color resist 22 is equal to the size of one end of the light-emitting layer 17 towards the color resist 22, i.e., the color resist 22 coincides with the light-emitting layer 17. The light of the light-emitting layer 17 can be emitted to the outside through the color resist 22, and at the same time, the color resist 22 can also absorb the reflected ambient light, reduce the reflection of ambient light, and improve the light-emitting efficiency.
[0113] The black matrix 23 is arranged opposite to the pixel definition layer, and along the extension direction of the first substrate 11 and the second substrate 21, the size of the black matrix 23 is the same as the corresponding pixel definition layer, for example, one of the black matrix 23 coincides with the first pixel definition layer 151 toward one side of the color film substrate, and the other side of the black matrix 23 coincides with the second pixel definition layer 152 toward one side of the color film substrate, and the black matrix 23 is used to achieve light shielding and reduce the incidence of ambient light to the light-emitting layer 17.
[0114] At the same time, in order to reduce the sheet resistance of the cathode and avoid the generation of additional current voltage drop of the light-emitting component, an auxiliary cathode is also formed on the black matrix 23, the auxiliary cathode is arranged toward the array substrate, for example, the first auxiliary cathode 241 is formed on the black matrix 23 toward the first pixel definition layer 151, and the second auxiliary cathode 242 is formed on the black matrix 23 toward the second pixel definition layer 152, the auxiliary cathode is stacked on the black matrix 23, and does not affect the light-emitting area of the light-emitting layer 17, wherein in order to reduce the reflection of ambient light by the auxiliary cathode, along the extension direction of the second substrate 21, the size of the corresponding auxiliary cathode is smaller than the size of the black matrix 23.
[0115] By stacking the auxiliary cathode, the thickness of the equivalent cathode of the auxiliary cathode and the cathode as a whole increases, and the sheet resistance is inversely proportional to the thickness of the cathode, the greater the thickness, the smaller the sheet resistance, and the smaller the current voltage drop, therefore, by stacking the auxiliary cathode, the sheet resistance of the equivalent cathode can be reduced, and the current voltage drop of the pixel unit can be reduced, the overall brightness of the display panel is ensured to be consistent, the display uniformity of the display panel is achieved, and the display effect is improved.
